+      Before creating a mediated device, unbind the device from the respective
+      device driver, eg. subchannel I/O driver for a CCW device. Then bind the
+      device to the respective VFIO driver. For a CCW device, also unbind the
+      corresponding subchannel of the CCW device from the subchannel I/O driver
+      and then bind the subchannel (instead of the CCW device) to the vfio_ccw
+      driver. The below example shows the unbinding and binding steps for a CCW
+      device.
